Windows Vista Update Solves IPod Issues

Earlier this week Microsoft released a collection of patches for some prominent Windows Vista bugs, most notably one that affected a certain MP3 player from Apple. Although Apple released an update to iTunes recently that solved a number of Vista-iPod issues, it neglected to patch a flaw in the Safely Remove Hardware command that could cause data corruption.

Among this week's Vista updates is one that solves the Safely Remove Hardware bug. If you haven't updated Apple recommends using the Eject iPod command in iTunes to unmount your iPod rather than the Vista Safely Remove Hardware taskbar tool.

So far as I can tell, the RAW image metadata corruption issues appear to still be a problem and the Nikon codec problems also remain unsolved (if you know of an update for the Nikon RAW codecs in Vista be sure to let us know in the comments below).
